📋 About This Mod
Thankyou for your interest in my mod!
I have also released a new standalone DLC with custom armor here: https://rd.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/2818/
DESCRIPTION
There are two ways to use this mod. One is integrated into the base game, the other is a tailored gaming experience.
It is intended to be played using "Version 2", however "Version 1" is the base of the mod, and applies to a wider audience.
The items have been carefully balanced to ensure that they align with vanilla values, allowing overhaul mods to take control as intended.
You can obtain the items in a natural manner, with stats that scale to your level and continue scaling with you as you level up.
(See "V1 - Immersive-Friendly" below)
Alternatively, these items can be used from lvl 1-100 scaling to the players current level and continue scaling with you as you level up.
(See "V2 - Sumajin Experience" below)
The Items are intended to be used as a set. (Using the pieces separately may make you overpowered)
The Armor Value increases by 12 every level. (Controlled by Chest, other pieces do not increase)
The Resistance Values increase by 4. 2 every 5 levels. (Skips level 5)
The Boots/Gloves/Pants have flat stats. (They will not change apart from their required level matching your current level)
The Crossbows don't scale. (They just don't)
The Horse gear is just cool stuff. (Purchasable from Yoanna at all times)
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Both GrandMaster Bonus' only require 1 piece to activate; keep this in mind if you intend on mixing GrandMaster set.
The NG+ part of the mod is not functioning as intended. I have made the armor and horse gear unavailable.
Please consider this mod as only functioning for a standard game until the next version (v1. 2 pending community feedback)

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 492 endorsements and 14,566 downloads.
- Offers flexibility with two versions for different playstyles.
- Level-scaling gear keeps loot relevant throughout your playthrough.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2017 – may have compatibility issues with current game versions.
- Limited to one armor set – not for players wanting a wide variety of gear.
For players who want gear that grows with them, offering a balanced progression without constant swapping. Also for those who prefer a tailored experience via console commands. Skip if you're looking for a large content overhaul or modern updates.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're playing with mods, use the immersive version to keep balance intact.
- Use the console version if you want the gear at level 1 – just open the console and add the items.
- Check your game version for compatibility, as the mod is from 2017.
